Overview
- Diggs formally signed a one-year contract reportedly worth up to $12 million and passed a physical before being introduced by the Commanders.
- Diggs, which practiced with the team Friday at Ashburn training camp, called the move a homecoming and praised quarterback Jayden Daniels as a “superstar.”
- The 32-year-old comes off a productive 2025 season with New England in which he had 85 catches for about 1,013 yards after returning from a torn ACL.
- Washington views Diggs as an immediate upgrade opposite Terry McLaurin that gives Daniels veteran pass‑catching help and leadership in a thin receiver room.
- The deal is structured as a short-term, incentive-heavy move that leaves questions about long-term fit because of Diggs’ age and ongoing civil litigation even after a criminal acquittal and NFL clearance.
